Tenure Summary
Latrese Davis Schofield spent the bulk of her Georgia Department of Corrections career in analytical roles — Business Support Analyst III and earlier positions — before moving into facility leadership in 2025. She began as a Deputy Warden at the Metro Reentry Facility in January 2025, then transitioned to Deputy Warden of Care and Treatment in May of that year, a role she still holds. GPS records attribute 10 deaths to the Metro Reentry Facility during her deputy‑warden tenures. No lawsuits have been filed naming Schofield as a defendant. Her time at the facility coincided with a high‑profile investigation after a man transferred from a prison riot died upon arrival at Metro Reentry.What happened on their watch
Schofield entered the Metro Reentry Facility as Deputy Warden on January 1, 2025, and moved to the care‑and‑treatment deputy post on May 1, 2025. In the period spanning both deputy‑level positions, GPS records count 10 deaths at the facility. All ten deaths are classified under cause category 6. Decedents ranged in age from 46 to 74, and included Harden Millard Walker (70), Willie James Johnson (74), and Sammy Bernard Palmer (54) in early 2025, through Robert Rodriguez Johnson (46), Donald Woods (65), and Samuel Dennis Hunt (64) in early 2026.A notable incident during Schofield’s tenure involved Silas Westbrook. After a riot at Washington State Prison in January 2026, Westbrook — who had been hospitalized with what were described as minor injuries — was transferred to Metro Reentry. According to intelligence collected by GPS, he suffered a medical emergency upon arrival on January 17, 2026, and was pronounced dead at the facility. The GDC’s Office of Professional Standards launched an investigation; Westbrook’s body was sent to the GBI crime lab for an official cause‑of‑death determination. No findings have been publicly released, and no lawsuits have been filed against Schofield in connection with that death or any other.
